THEMES FOR THE WEEK (Weekly Index for easy reference)
September

1.
“I Am The Light Of The World”. “He That Follows Me
Shall Not Walk In Darkness...”, said Jesus Christ (John
8:12).
A.
Jhn
8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the
world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall
have the light of life.
B.
What a blessing Jesus is for those that follow Him!
C. I,
personally, as a disciple of Jesus Christ, am absolutely elated about
Jesus. I am so filled with “elation” within my being
about the Lord. I ponder the things that come through Him. Eternal
life, forgiveness, transformation, peace, joy, comfort, hope, and so
much more. I have been thinking about how I love the ways of the
LORD. He is so good and His ways are wonderful. He is such a blessing
to the soul. I enjoy so much how He teaches me. What
He
teaches and the like.
D. I was reading this text in John 8
and was struck by this verse. Jesus is THE light of the world.
Following Him means that you will not walk in darkness. This is also
a theme mentioned by John the apostle in 1John 1.
1Jo
1:5 ¶ This then is the message which we have heard of him, and
declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at
all. 1Jo 1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in
darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the
light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another,
and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
E.
Jesus came to save. Jesus came to take away our sins. Jesus came to
show us the way to the Father. When we have faith in Him from our
heart, we are accounted righteous by God. He changes us and we live
our lives through the life of Christ. He is our righteousness. This
is one of the key points here that following Jesus who is light,
means we do not walk in darkness. That should be really good news for
you. If this bothers you, then there is something wrong. Do you love
the light? Or, do you hate the light?
F. The coming days are
very dark days indeed. As prophesied by Isaiah, the days will come
with great darkness, gross darkness upon the people. But those in
Jesus Christ shall not partake of this darkness for they shall have
the light of Jesus Christ. The very glory of God shall be upon them
and through them and that glory shall be seen upon them.
Isa
60:1 ¶ Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the
LORD is risen upon thee. Isa 60:2 For, behold, the darkness shall
cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall
arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
G.
Furthermore we have the testimony of apostle Paul on this light in
Jesus Christ.
1Th
5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should
overtake you as a thief. 1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light,
and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of
darkness.
H.
“H” for Hope. We have hope in Jesus Christ as this age
concludes in a state of darkness. He is our light and will never
leave us or forsake us. He is with us to the end of the age. Though
there is great darkness in the world, there will also be great light
of Jesus Christ for the faithful.
I. In the world shall come
an antichrist who shall set up a Kingdom in the earth as prophesied
by the prophets in scripture. A Kingdom of the Beast shall be
empowered by the Devil the Dragon himself. This Kingdom shall be
judged by God and those in it who have taken the mark of the Beast.
God shall judge them with great judgments of pain, scorching by the
sun and DARKNESS. Even as God judged the land of Egypt at the time of
the original Passover with a darkness so great that it could be felt,
so to will this Beast Kingdom of darkness be judged by God. But there
shall be salvation for those who deny the mark of the Beast and trust
God for all things including their salvation, deliverance, provision,
healing, guidance and any other thing needed by God's children.
2.
The Precious Members Of The Body Of Christ.
A.
God has
a place for
those that are in Jesus Christ.
B. The believers in Jesus
comprise the Body of Christ.
C. We are to be a spiritual
building, a habitation of God through the Holy Spirit.
D.
Each any every member in the Body of Christ is important and vital.
E. No one part can say to another part of the Body of Christ,
“I have no need of you”.
F. Therefore, it is a
great loss to the Body of Christ, yet alone the Lord Jesus, when one
of His saints falls away or goes astray into error.
G. I
appeal to those who profess faith in Christ to consider more
carefully how your life is beyond your own. Your behavior, your
service to the Lord or non-service has an effect on others. Your sins
may effect the Body of Christ as did the sin of Achan.
H. We
are called to be a holy people sanctified and fit for the Master's
use. May we all hold each other in honor to the Lord, encourage and
be holding each other accountable to the standard of God in His
Kingdom.
I. It is as those out at sea in a row boat. We do
not, and can not, have certain ones pocking holes in the boat. We can
not have the boat filling up with water when we are out at sea in
this world. We must close the gaps in Christ. Put away the flesh and
the ways of the world, putting on the Lord Jesus Christ and making no
provision for the flesh. This is our scriptural mandate from the Lord
in these Last Days.
J. “J” for Jesus. Jesus is not
willing that any perish. He is not willing to lose one. So, take hold
of eternal life. Take hold of the things you have heard and seen of
the Lord and make yourselves strong in Him.
1Cr
16:13 ¶ Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be
strong.
3.
A P O S T A S Y. But First The Falling Away And The Man Of Sin To Be
Revealed. Apostasy Now.
A.
The Apostasy is here and expanding.
B. The call is to come
back to the Lord who bought you by His own blood. Nothing, no one,
can save you other than Jesus Christ. Don't go without Him.
C.
Apostasy comes in many shapes, sizes and colors.
D. Apostasy
leaves those in it numb, desensitized and oblivious to the fact that
they are in apostasy. It is “Church As Usual”.
E.
2Th
2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not
come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be
revealed, the son of perdition;
F.

4.
Professors
Of Entering Into The “Divine Nature” Without Jesus Christ
And The Cross Is Synonymous With The New Agers' False Belief In
Becoming Deities—gods--- as the Serpent Said.
A.
Gen
3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes
shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. Gen
3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and
that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make
[one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also
unto her husband with her; and he did eat
B.
The serpent speaks the lie of 'man becoming a god'.
C. Adam
and Eve were deceived and believed the lie.
D. Paul the
apostle feared that the disciples of Jesus would be misled from the
simplicity that is in Christ and believe the subtlety of the lies of
the Devil.
E. The Mormon religion teaches that God was a man
who became God. And, that they as a man can become a god. That is
anathema. That is a lie of the serpent. That is another gospel. They
hold to another Jesus as 2Corinthians 11 speaks.
2Cr
11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve
through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the
simplicity that is in Christ. 2Cr 11:4 For if he that cometh
preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye
receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him].
F.
2Pe
1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having
escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
G.
Yes, the scripture teaches that those in Jesus Christ are granted the
promises whereby they may partake of the “divine nature”.
However, this reality comes by way of the cross of Jesus. It comes by
repentance, faith, and a crucified life over the ways of sinful flesh
and the corruption of the world through lust as this text declares.
H. I observe those in the Christian Land promoting a pseudo
spirituality that is not based in the power of God and reality of the
cross and power of the resurrection of Jesus. We will never
experience the 'divine nature' outside of partaking of the cross and
quickening of the Holy Spirit, which is the power of the
resurrection.
I. I urge you to have keen discernment and
perception that only comes from the Lord and having a pure heart in
Jesus Christ. Many are using elements of the truth but they
themselves are false. You must discern by the Holy Spirit. You must
discern by the Word of God. You must discern by having your senses
exercised to discern good from evil.
J. I also observe those
who promote a very esoteric and ethereal version of the “man-child”
spoken of in Revelation 12. There are those who say they will be the
man-child in the last days. I believe this is a distortion. I believe
that God has called us to walk in Jesus Christ now; not a delayed
someday experience of a mystical group here and there. Today is the
day to pick up our cross, deny ourselves, and follow Jesus. Glory in
the cross. Die daily. Be quickened by the Holy Spirit. Let Jesus
Christ be your life. Put on the new man. Put off the old man and his
corrupt deeds. By following these scriptural principles you will
indeed walk in the 'divine nature'. God has not called us to be mere
men. We are to be born from above. We must be washed, regenerated and
renewed by the Holy Spirit. Titus
3:5
K.
There are many people who have the desire to be god.
L. There
are many people who say they believe in Jesus Christ but desire to be
god.
M. There are many people who are masquerading as
believers in Jesus but are promoting a tangent gospel of mysticism
rooted in the Serpent's lie of godhood and supermen
christs.
They call it the “divine nature” or the “man-child”.
O.
One way to avoid this it to make sure you remain humble under the
mighty hand of God and remain a servant and not a King-deity exalted
in the vanity of your imagination.
5.
Katalyo:
The Temple In Jerusalem Demolished, Destroyed, Eradicated, Concluded
Through Jesus' Fulfillment.
A.
Jesus fully rebuked the religious system in the days He was here as
outlined in Matthew 23 for their hypocrisy, error and unregenerated
lives.
Matthew
23: A Very Important Read regarding the error of religion.
Appearances, accolades, titles, seeking honor form man, hypocrisy,
leaven, controlling the people, and rejecting the true authority of
Jesus in reality.
B.
After Jesus rebuke of the scribes and Pharisees, Jesus disciples came
to Him to show Him the beauty and greatness of the buildings of the
Temple in Jerusalem as Matthew 24 documents.
C. This is an
odd thing to me considering the heavy rebuke and truthful state of
the religious system there in Israel. To focus attention and ascribe
value to “goodly stones and great buildings” I find very
odd indeed. But, I realize that this is the exact same thing that is
occurring in today's Christian World for the most part. The people
look on the appearance of things and do not rightly discern the true
state of the religious institutions.
D. Jesus proclaimed that Mat
24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I
say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another,
that shall not be thrown down
E.
And it surely came to pass just as Jesus said. Jerusalem was
surrounded by armies of Rome and completely ransacked especially the
temple.
F. Jesus description of this destruction was specific
and stated that “there shall not be left here one stone upon
another...”.
G. However, Jesus next clarification of
this event is most important for us to understand, and that is, Jesus
continued, “...that shall not be thrown down.”
H.
The word for “thrown down” has the meaning of being
demolished as an institution.
I. "thrown
down" in Greek is "katalyo": Lexicon--1) to dissolve,
disunite a) (what has been joined together), to destroy, demolishb)
metaph. to overthrow i.e. render vain, deprive of success, bring to
naught1) to subvert, overthrowa) of institutions, forms of
government, laws, etc., to deprive of force, annul, abrogate,
discardc) of travellers, to halt on a journey, to put up, lodge (the
figurative expression originating in the circumstance that, to put up
for the night, the straps and packs of the beasts of burden are
unbound and taken off; or, more correctly from the fact that the
traveller's garments, tied up when he is on the journey, are unloosed
at it end)
J.
Jesus is declaring the end of the temple institution.
K.
Jesus as both priest and sacrifice before God for the sins of man,
offered Himself as a sacrifice for sins, making a way into the Holy
of Holies by way of His flesh.
L.
Hbr
9:8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of
all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet
standing: Hbr 9:11 ¶ But Christ being come an high priest of
good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not
made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Hbr 9:12
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he
entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal
redemption [for us]. Hbr 9:13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats,
and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the
purifying of the flesh: Hbr 9:14 How much more shall the blood of
Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot
to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living
God? Hbr 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new
testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the
transgressions [that were] under the first testament, they which are
called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
M.
There is a lot of misguided understanding of relating to the future
value of the Temple in Israel. I have heard bible teachers from
Dallas Theological Seminary such as Tommy Ice state that God was
going to restore the Temple in Jerusalem before the end. Also, it is
stated and believed that the two witnesses that prophecy in Israel
and are rejected and killed shall participate in the revived Temple
in the Last Days.
N. This is incorrect due to Isaiah 66. Since
Jesus fulfilled all righteousness and the penalty for sin according
to scripture, to continue to offer sacrifices on an altar is an
abomination to God. Therefore, true prophets or witnesses of the LORD
shall not be participating in the Last Days Temple if one is rebuilt.
Although the antichrist and the false church religion would most
certainly join together in these events thinking falsely that they
are serving God.
O. This is the reason disciples of Christ
must understand these things and what the scriptures teach in their
regard. Great deception is coming and has already arrived. Yet the
deception will increase on a great scale as God Himself allows the
disobedient to believe a lie.
P. Isa
66:1 ¶ Thus saith the LORD, The heaven [is] my throne, and the
earth [is] my footstool: where [is] the house that ye build unto me?
and where [is] the place of my rest? Isa 66:2 For all those [things]
hath mine hand made, and all those [things] have been, saith the
LORD: but to this [man] will I look, [even] to [him that is] poor and
of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. Isa 66:3 ¶ He
that killeth an ox [is as if] he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a
lamb, [as if] he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation,
[as if he offered] swine's blood; he that burneth incense, [as if] he
blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul
delighteth in their abominations.
6.
Truth Withheld For Money's Sake And Placating The Religious Masses Is
Anathema
(Cursed).
A.
I was listening to a sound man of God teaching on the Day of the
LORD. He was explaining the fallacies of those who promote a
pre-tribulation rapture. He was showing how they are not consistent
in their doctrinal position such as stating that Matthew 24 was
written to the Jews and not the Gentiles. Yet, they will tell you
that “we do not know the day nor the hour of the coming of
Jesus”. This statement is true, however, if they held to the
position that this gospel of Matthew was not written for the Gentiles
then it would not be used for their proof text in this manner.
B.
The key thing I want to document here is how this teacher said that
there are many “pastors” so-called who do not believe the
pre-tribulation rapture theory but teach it anyway.
C. This is
true.
D. The point the teacher was stating was that these
“teachers” feared the people's response if they taught a
biblical doctrine of persecution, affliction and tribulation for the
believers.
E. It also reveals that sad truth that most of
these type of “pastors and teachers” are hirelings who
teach according to the monetary draw and not the proclamation of the
truth.
F. “F” for False, fake, and failure for
those who withhold the truth of the Word of God due to its
unpopularity or the negative effect on receiving money. That is so
ungodly and foreign to the Kingdom of God and is shameful. It is
nothing but the love of money and filthy lucre.
G. Run from
these charlatan shenanigan con men. Run for your life. A little
leaven will leaven the whole lump. Beware of the leaven of the
Scribes and Pharisees.
H. It is quite easy to recognize those
who take the truth of God and push it into a tangent of error. Here
is how. In the Kingdom of God, humility and servantude is the earmark
of those following Jesus. Those who elevate themselves, speak of
themselves and seek glory and honor from man are not of God. This is
why those who want to be exalted love these elements of scripture
that speak of the 'divine nature' and the man-child.
I. Is it
enough for you to be faithful to the Lord and commended by Him in so
doing? Be honest.
7.
The World.
A.
Jesus said, “Jhn
17:16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
B.
Jesus said, “Jhn
17:14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them,
because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
C.
Jesus said, “Jhn
15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but
because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the
world, therefore the world hateth you.
D.
Jesus said, “Jhn
7:7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of
it, that the works thereof are evil.
E.
So, if you are a disciple of Jesus, you should find that you are at
odds with the world. You should find that typically, people of the
world do not like you. Why? Because they hate Jesus.
F. If you
are a professing Christian and are not vexed with the wickedness of
this evil world, there is something wrong with you. Are you like Lot
who was vexed from day to day about the wickedness of Sodom? Or, are
you like Lot's wife who saw nothing wrong with her homeland. Rather,
her heart was more set on the evil in the land and her comfort with
it than the anger of the LORD Whom was incensed over the abominations
of the land.
G. Cain is of the world. There are many people
who have gone the way of Cain and will hate the righteous. They just
hate you without a reason.
H. John the apostle: 1Jo
2:15 ¶ Love not the world, neither the things [that are] in the
world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in
him. 1Jo 2:16 For all that [is] in the world, the lust of the flesh,
and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the
Father, but is of the world. 1Jo 2:17 And the world passeth away, and
the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever
I.
James the apostle: Jam
4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship
of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend
of the world is the enemy of God.
J.
Jesus has called you out of the world and into His Kingdom. Are you
still steeped in the things of this world? Are you of the world? Do
you love the world? Are you doing the lusts of the world? Pleasure
outside of God's order? Covetous for things not given to you? Are you
seeking the pride of life in notoriety, fame and honor of man? If so,
you are not in the Kingdom but of the world.
K. So now we see
just how evil the Church World is that is just as worldly as the
world itself. Because institutional Christianity has largely forsaken
Jesus and gone after the things of the world. The leaders are
worldly. Their message is worldly. Their devices and tactics are
worldly. Is it any wonder why the pew sitters are worldly?
L.
Come out. Come out of the world. Come unto the Lord Jesus and follow
Him in this wicked world and be a light. Be salt in the Lord Jesus.
But take heed, those who have lost their savor have become useless
and shall be thrown out only to be trampled under foot of man.
Mat
5:13 ¶ Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost
his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for
nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
8.
View Everything From God's Perspective.
A.
It is most important to view everything from God's perspective and
not a human emotion.
B. God's ways are not our ways. His ways
are higher than carnal man's ways as far as the heaven is above the
earth.
C. We must have our mind's renewed in Jesus Christ. We
must put on the mind of Christ. We must have our minds' girded.
D.
Too often people do not understand the mind of God. However, the Holy
Spirit is the Spirit of the Father which reveals to His followers the
mind of God.
1Cr
2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man
which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the
Spirit of God. 1Cr 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the
world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things
that are freely given to us of God. 1Cr 2:13 Which things also we
speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the
Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 1Cr
2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of
God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them],
because they are spiritually discerned. 1Cr 2:15 But he that is
spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 1Cr
2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct
him? But we have the mind of Christ.
E.
It is evident from time to time that professing Christians lack the
understanding of the ways of the Lord due to the things they say and
believe.
F. A case in point that is very pertinent is the
judgment of God that is now manifesting in the earth. So often people
say they want God to delay judgment. Or, they pray for mercy that God
would not bring judgment upon the sons of disobedience that refused
to repent after long dealings of the Lord.
G. It is so odd
that people would think they have more love or mercy than God(?).
H.
Scripturally, we see that there are times when the line is crossed
and God must judge for His name's sake.
I.
The flood of Noah is one example. The judgment upon Sodom and
Gomorrah is another. The judgments upon Israel and Judah His own
rebellious unbelieving people yet another example. These things are
written for our admonition and learning. Does anyone really learn and
take these things to heart? God is a consuming fire. It is a fearful
thing to fall into the hands of the Living God.
J.
In scripture, we see the holy ones of the LORD praising God and
declaring how worthy and right His judgments are. Why are professing
Christians contrary to the mind and Word of God?
K. Again, we
must view everything and have understanding from God's
perspective.
9.
Houses, Families and Relationships To Be Divided According To Jesus.
Warning—Be Prepared.
A.
This text was quickened to me this week. The reality of absolute
betrayal from those closest to us. Even to the point of death!
Mat
10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the
father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their]
parents, and cause them to be put to death. Mar 13:12 Now the brother
shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and
children shall rise up against [their] parents, and shall cause them
to be put to death. Luk 21:16 And ye shall be betrayed both by
parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [some] of you
shall they cause to be put to death.
B.
In the Last Days, the atmosphere in the earth will be catastrophic
full of tyranny, oppression, pressure and fear. It will be 'every man
for himself'.
C. Keep your focus on the eternal. Keep your
priorities and focus on the Lord and not your own life and the things
of this world. As you lay it down from day to day, it will be easy by
the grace of God to go through these things. Considering Jesus and
how He endured a great contradiction of sinners as Hebrews 12 tells
us.
10.
“All Who Live Godly In Christ Jesus Shall Be Persecuted”.
2:Timothy 3:12:
A.
2Ti
3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution.
B.
All means all. If you truly live godly in Jesus, then you will be
persecuted.
C. Are you being persecuted?
D. Are you
avoiding persecution?
E. Are you silent?
F. Are you
hiding your light?
G. Have you already lost the salt's
savor?
H. Consider whole Christian Church movements today that
are banding together with other religions, emphasizing entertainment,
worldliness, salt-less gospel, sensual emphasis, cross-less message,
synthesized (blended) themes, mystical pursuits, denying the word of
God and hide the truth.
I. So many “churches”
today are pursuing things of the world. So many “churches”
today offer a milquetoast gospel message. So many “churches
today are just religious social clubs. Too many “churches today
do not make disciples of Jesus. The majority of “churches”
today are not listening to the voice of the Spirit. The Lord is
censored. The Church World today is syncretized with the world,
politics, entertainment, mysticism, vanity and is in the wrong battle
by being entangled in the affairs of this world. This—is
apostasy.
J.
There is no persecution for righteousness because there is no
righteousness. There is no persecution for Jesus' sake because He is
not involved.
11.
2Timothy 3:2: Perilous Times And The Culture Clan Of the Last
Days.
A.
2Ti
3:1 ¶ This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall
come. 2Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,
boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful,
unholy, 2Ti 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false
accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 2Ti
3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers
of God;
B.
Have you notices how the multitudes around you are like a herd?
C.
Have you noticed how the public at large is largely lost?
D.
Have you discerned how selfish people are?
E. Do you observe
how darkened people's eyes are?
F. Most people around you
think they are so wise but yet they are so foolish.
G. We are
really seeing the Word of God coming to pass in our day!
12.
The Parallel Between Jeremiah 7 And Ephesians 5.
A.
God told Jeremiah the prophet to prophecy to the religious people.
God was calling the people to amend their ways and then they would be
allowed to remain in the land that God had given them.
B.
They were committing adultery, lying, stealing, burning incense to
Ball and worshiping other gods.
C. God's call through
Jeremiah was that the sinning religious people not TRUST IN LYING
WORDS.
D. God was greatly offended that the people would sin
so freely and then come stand before Him as if to worship.
E.
Today, the state of the institutional Church is in the same as Israel
and Judah which God judged for their hypocrisy and un-repented
sin.
F. Paul the Apostle in Ephesians 5 states the same call
to turn from sin.
G. Paul urged that believers in Jesus
Christ be not deceived by lying words that whitewash sin and
encourage and strengthen people in their sin rather than calling them
to stop.
Eph
5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these
things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of
disobedience.
Jeremiah
7: Amend your ways. Don't sin away and then come stand before God as
if you love Him. Don't trust in lying words that allow
this.
Ephesians
5: Paul the apostle's warning to sinning "Christians" who
